If anyone is trying to decide between the regular and executive membership, just know/remember you need to spend $3000 in store or online annually (with a few exclusions) for the executive membership to pay for itself/recoup the extra cost. Every dollar after that is profit.

And I believe you can get a refund if you decide halfway through that you definitely won't make it, just in case.

Their scan and go app is phenomenal though. Hate standing in line at Costco like a sucker. Their TP and paper towels are still cheaper than HEB, and better quality too. Bottled water is cheaper as well, if you need bottled water.

FYI for anyone who bit on the $20 card offer last week - no price match on membership promotional offers. I tried on chat with a representative earlier.

This will be Costco location/manager dependent. In order to make a return, they scan your Costco membership card that corresponds to the product purchased. It is all in their system. To do a return without is technically against their procedures, hence in some cases manager approval will be necessary. I have shopped and returned items at Costcos in 10 different states over the years, including some of the busiest in the nation. My brother in law is also the store manager of a Costco. This has been my experience and what he has told me about it as well. Ymmv of course.
I mean, that's what the receipt is for. It makes sense that anything purchased while using a Costco membership, all the benefits stay with that purchase. That's why Costco has no sort of documentation saying it's at discretion.

Whatever you say. The benefits are with the membership. Otherwise what would stop folks from buying a big ticket item, then cancelling their membership, then returning it years later.

I have never once made a return where they did not make me scan my membership card.

So no, your interpretation does not make sense. If you read carefully, their return policy includes this:

*Limitations apply. See the membership counter or Costco.com for details

The devil is in the details.

Yes, limitations on how long to return certain items, like a tv. If they didn't allow returns or resulting in discretion when the membership is over, it would be stated. Stating otherwise without citation from Costco is just spreading misinformation.

You are the one spreading misinformation. You are stating your opinion.

The satisfaction guarantee is a member privilege. Here is your citation. Please stop just making stuff up. Someone may rely on it and then end up stuck.

It's not an opinion. You're literally the one stating an opinion. Nothing in there says what you stated. You're digging in an empty barrel.

It won't matter. They need the member there that purchased it with an account in good standing. A manager would need to over ride this.
I bought from a friend's card but it was still active when I returned with a receipt. She or her card wasn't present at the time of return.

Anyone know till when the deal is active? My membership expired Oct 31 2022. I believe Costco considers 18 month break as 'new' membership. Which means I ought to wait till 1st of next month. Wondering if this deal will still be valid.

We have been using Costco for few years I am surprised their customer service and policies is getting worst, asking for card and look for the picture is just crazy
It's a response to people lending cards to co-workers, etc. It is not trying to make policies and service worse.

It's been said that Costco only makes money on the memberships. I guess some analysts compared profit to membership revenue or something like that. So for every person using Costco, but not paying for the membership... well, the paying members are hurt by that. So recently, membership required at the food court. When they sell that hot dog and drink for $1.50, it is a member benefit. Too many non-members making the line long but not paying their dues.

Heck, Netflix recently came down like a ton of bricks on sharing. It's a sign of the times.
